The Best Part of This 550-Square-Foot Duplex Isn't Its Size — It's the Layout
Thoughtful room divisions, cozy built-ins, and distinct spaces for dining, relaxing, and working make this tiny D.C. rental feel far larger, and far more functional, than its 550 square feet.

She Put a Dollar Tree Pill Organizer on Her Fridge, and I’m Going to Copy Her
As someone with ADHD, I have a tough time keeping track of everything in my apartment. That’s not because everything’s a mess, but rather because I can easily forget about something if I don’t see it. That means when something is placed inside a drawer, container, closet, or even on top of a crowded countertop, it very well may become invisible to me. Labels and lists can help, but, ultimately for me, visible storage is best.

Limewashed Walls Gave This Kitchen a Vintage, Minimalist Redo
Adding a limewash paint treatment to your walls can add a vintage, worldly aesthetic to even a brand-new space. It’s often used in living rooms and bedrooms, but DIYer and apartment dweller Teresa Rudolph added it to her kitchen — and the result is stunning. When she moved in, the kitchen had crisp white walls, checkered floors, and a basic white kitchen setup on the left-hand side.

The 72-Hour Moving Plan: How to Go from Moving Boxes to a Finished Home in One Long Weekend
We talk about “moving day” as if schlepping houses is only a 24-hour affair. Between packing (so much packing), cleaning, and unpacking, moving can feel like an endless task. But it doesn’t have to be — especially when you have a little help.On Taskrabbit, you can book trusted local Taskers by the hour, often same-day, so you only pay for the help you need. But maybe first you need a hand uninstalling that TV wall mount or cleaning your old place?

An Office Is Unrecognizable After IKEA BILLY Created a Refreshing Redo
Sometimes 1970s wood-paneled spaces are great, but other times they just look old rather than retro. In Katie and Philip Bowling’s home office, that was the case.“We loved the coziness of the small office room, but it was so dark with the old faux wood paneling,” homeowner Katie Bowling (@katiebowlinghome) says. “The carpet in the room was so worn down.

I Gave My Kitchen a Cheerful Redo — It Feels Like an English Cottage
When my partner and I bought our 1928 Arts & Crafts bungalow home in Portland, Oregon, at the end of 2023, I knew the kitchen was going to be a project. The floors were painted black and chipping off in large flecks. The countertops were avocado green and streaked with rust stains. The walls were gloomy and gray, and made the whole room feel like a basement. And the appliances? Beyond saving.

A Closet Lacked Purpose — Until It Became a French-Inspired Wine Room
While traveling, I always fall in love with the architecture and design style of the places I’m visiting — it’s impossible for me not to become inspired and take a part of it home with me. Lots of homeowners feel the same — like this family home in London, England, that got a major makeover inspired by their trip to Miami, or this Netherlands home inspired by the family’s time in Malaysia.

I Used to Wake Up Throughout the Night Until Sleep Number’s Latest Mattress
When you share a bed with someone, it’s possible that you’ll have different mattress preferences. At least, that’s the case for me and my fiancé, Jeremy. He’s a side and back sleeper, so he likes a firmer mattress, while I’m a stomach sleeper and like something softer that I can sink into. Our differing opinions became very apparent when I was testing mattress toppers for our Best List of mattress toppers, and Jeremy was naturally testing them with me.

A Renter-Friendly Redo Took a Mint Green Kitchen from Dated to Boho
A home — regardless of whether it’s rented or owned — should be a reflection of the people who live there. Content creator Élise needed that to be the case in her house, especially in the kitchen. When she moved in, the room had mint green cabinets and floral wallpaper, which she described as “grandma chic in a cutesy way.” It wasn’t going to work for her.
